WHEAT-There is no activity to speak of and
it looks as if the situation will remain in its
present quiet condition until we pass over into
the new year. Offerings in the sample market
are few, while the lots aggregated would not foot

are not easily obtalnable, as holders are not dis
posed to realize at what are recognized as cur
rent rates. Recorded sales this week of spot
lots to the extent of 500 tons at 81 So ctl in the
Call Board will be the best guide as to prevailing
values for product that will pass inspection as
No. l standard.

strong week ago. There are fairly liberal
offerings, and the inquiry is also of moderate

cially attractive.
